I have a 20g aquarium with 4 pygmy puffers in there.I was considering getting 4 ghost catfish to put in there with them.Would the pygmy puffers pick on the catfish?Thanks.

Those fish like to hover in one place. Easy target for pufferteeth.

Yeah, I wouldn't try it. They get kinda big too.

NIMFT. I love ghost cats, but they are really not good mixed-tank fish, and as already stated, easy prey for DPs.

They are the one fish that I have always wanted and have never had. Are there any good resources/references on them?
